This is a free Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) training program offered at NHC Pulaski. The program is a fast-paced, two-week long, unpaid class. Upon successful completion, there may be an opportunity to apply for employment with the facility. To be considered for the class, applicants must provide a completed application, valid photo identification, and a Social Security card at the time of their interview. No absences or tardiness are permitted during the two-week duration, and all tests must be passed with a score of 80% or greater to continue in the course. Students will need to provide a $40 deposit for books and supplies on the first day of class, which will be returned upon graduation. Additionally, students are required to purchase one set of scrubs to wear daily. A criminal background check will be conducted, along with a review of the Tennessee and/or National Abuse Registry for Children and Adults. Individuals with felony convictions, certain misdemeanor charges, or those found on the abuse registry cannot be admitted. Accepted students will receive a phone call on or before the Friday before the class begins at 10:00 AM. Student selection is based on facility need, shift availability, entrance exam score, candidate flexibility, previous work history, and attitude, with the best qualified candidates being chosen.
